The three kinds of "no capital gains tax"
- Zero-tax havens (UAE, Monaco, Cayman, Bermuda, BVI, Bahamas), no income, gains or wealth tax at all.
- Territorial systems, only local-source income is taxed; foreign gains fall outside the net.
- CGT-exempt, normal income tax on salaries, but private capital gains are simply not taxed.
Which one fits depends on whether your money is salary, dividends or asset sales. Compare any two side by side in the explorer.
